Will Genoa take points in the capital?
This weekend will see the 23rd matchday of Serie A. There will be an opportunity to place a Lazio Rome – Genoa bet as early as Friday. The hosts are clear favorites going into the match, but Genoa will be riding a wave of momentum.
Looking at recent encounters, the Eagles from Rome have the upper hand, but their league form has been mixed lately, while Genoa has been on an upward trend.
The Lazio Rome vs. Genoa prediction is therefore not so easy, but the bottom line is that the home side must be seen as the favorites. Lazio has scored in 72% of its games at home. Genoa has collected points away from home, but has only won two games in total – including a lucky win at Udinese in December.
Only one win from their last seven games does not exactly speak in Lazio’s favor, who also lost their last home game. Their performances in recent games have been lackluster. Ultimately, however, Lazio has home advantage, which is why a home win can be expected. Betano is offering odds of 2.15 for this. Alternatively, you can also choose the double chance or 2-way bet.
Even though Genoa has performed well recently, they have struggled away from home. This is particularly true in attack, as they have scored only two goals in their last three away games. With an expected goals value of 0.9, it may be worth betting that both teams will not score.
If you think Lazio will come out on top this weekend and want higher odds with a little more risk, you can also bet on Lazio to be ahead after both halves. Bet-at-home is offering odds of 3.65 for this.
Lazio Rome – Genoa Head-to-head comparison / H2H record
When it comes to head-to-head comparisons, the Lazio Rome vs. Genoa betting odds are confirmed. Lazio has won the last five matches, conceding only one goal. In the last twelve matches, Genoa has only won once.
The overall record looks a little different. There have been a total of 139 games in the last hundred years. With 54 wins for Lazio and 49 for Genoa, this record is much closer than one might currently assume.
Lazio Rome – Genoa Tip
Lazio Rome has a chance on Friday, as a home win could see them climb further up the table. At the very least, coach Maurizio Sarri’s team could move up one place. They will be looking to capitalize on home advantage, which has already earned them points in several games this season.
Therefore, a home win can be expected. Although Genoa has not lost three times in a row away from home recently, they have not been able to score many goals. This increases Lazio’s chances.
The head-to-head record should not be overrated, but Lazio has had the upper hand in recent years and already won the first leg 3-0 away. A Lazio win in both halves is entirely possible.
It will be difficult for Genoa to score away from home. There have been few goals in their recent away games, and they have only scored once in their last five meetings with Lazio.
